Keep journaling.

You are having panic attacks which are perfectly normal given your situation. You just survived a suicide attempt and more. Viktor Frankl holocaust survivor says “An abnormal reaction to an abnormal event is a normal reaction.”

google cognitive distortions and identify the ones you are having. Ask the following- what evidence is there for this thought? Is it based in reality or emotion? Am I thinking in black or white terms or can it be gray? See if you can challenge your thoughts. Cognitive behavioral therapy.

Then think- what is the worst case scenario that can happen? What is the best? What is the in between or most likely to occur?

Write an unsent letter to your family.

Lastly on one side of a piece of paper, write to your inner child. On the other side record your inner child’s responses.

listen to Mercy Me. Trust me! These things will change you.
